NHTSA recall number 17V683 positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve heater : this recall involves an engine component known as the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve heater. The PCV valve heater may not have been produced to specifications. Over time, it could deteriorate and, in rare cases, could lead to overheating.
Takata recall. Even though my car's driver's side airbag may contain the takata psdi-5 inflator, BMW has not issued a recall to replace it. I will not drive the car or let any of my family drive it until BMW replaces the psdi-5 inflator or determines that my car has a safe inflator. I spoke with a BMW-usa customer rep. On September 19, 2017 and his only answer to all of my questions and concerns was, "there is no recall on your car!" he would not even acknowledge the fact that there are over 800,000 BMW cars with faulty takata inflators yet to be replaced. I asked that my car be inspected and the inflator replaced if it was a psdi-5 or that BMW provide me a loaner car until they finally did fix mine. If my car contains the psdi-5 inflator it is as potentially deadly now as when BMW replaces it with a safe one and until they do, I will not drive the car. Will NHTSA help me in this situation?

Takata recall: Have been trying since March 3016 to get BMW to replace airbag under recall. I live in Florida (certainly hot & muggy!). called Aug. 14 and told it would be taken care of this week. Called today and they have not yet notified the dealer and "released" the airbag. Maybe next week. Fyi, this is taking forever in an environment that should be priority. Loaners not available.
